Rejected petition Sanitary & Menopausal products to become free of charge in England.

Debate this proposal in the HOC, discuss the rights of women, the cost of such a proposal, consider significant reduced prescription charges, Issuing tampon vouchers to school aged girls, but ultimately pass legislation making the costs of those products free of charge.

More details

Women do not choose to have these medical conditions, but over the years of their lives, have to pay many £'s. Making those products free of charge cannot be achieved unless Gov't make this a mandatory piece of legislation.
